Made it to Ohio!

Captains Log May 11 – Another challenging day!  It was a bit nippy when we got underway    at 9:19 this morning.  Bill did his thing outside and I secured the inside.  Then it was a mile back to I-75 on our journey north.

Heading into Cincinnati
Traffic wasn’t as bad but there were some slow downs as there is a lot of work going on along the Interstate.  The plan for over night was a Flying J in Kentucky just before crossing the river into Ohio.  Bill found a free campground sponsored by FMCA, which is a camping membership which we are members of.  He was under the impression it was just outside of Cincinnati.  Well, it was a stressful drive just getting across the river, and then the roads were crappy and narrow thru a small town.  There were numerous turns and by the time we got here and Bill agreed had we known how far out of town it was we would have stayed at the Flying J.

It is a really nice place with full hook ups for 12 and another 10 sites on asphalt with electric

Backed into our spot

only.  The sites are concrete with some well manicured grass at each site.  We could stay 2 nights free and a great rate for longer but we only needed the one night. 

We were surprised that it was was pretty nippy out but at least the sun was out.  No needing the AC today!

Bill went for a walk about while I got out my laptop and did some calls, texts and emails.  Once he got back I spent a LONG time trying to get CBS on the antenna TV so we can watch NCIS tonight.  I was light a dog with a bone, I was not giving up as we could get ABS and NBC so why not CBS!  Finally success.

Since we stopped so late in the afternoon I didn’t get to take chicken out for dinner but I had 2 frozen stuff chicken

The tiny opening I had 
to drive thru to cross 
the bridge.

Since we stopped so late in the afternoon I didn’t get to take chicken out for dinner but I had 2 frozen stuff chicken breasts so I put them in the toaster oven and steamed fresh broccoli.  Yummy and easy!  Then Bill washed the front of the RV before time for NCIS.  Time to post and watch our show!
